Sumbitch……..might have to do some fabrication, I had to re work my sliders to get the front and rear frame side brackets on….I just realized I can’t do squat about my rear body bolt. It holds the sliders.
The scuffs you see on the side of the arm are from installing the body bolt after the arms were attached.

Naw, just gonna leave it alone. I don’t “feel” those hit and I’m not losing too much up travel. My rear shocks are almost bottomed out at full stuff anyway.
Looks like a countersunk bolt with a countersunk fender washer to replace the factory body bolt would clear you right up. Or just a countersunk bolt and countersink the slider itself, it's certainly beefy enough.I just realized I can’t do squat about my rear body bolt. It holds the sliders.

Hey man I'm just doing a little research. I'm assuming you went with the 4-link front and 3-link rear setup? Looks like the 3-link front requires an axle swap without the FAD.Awesome kit imo, was on it a couple years. The only thing I’d do differently if I had it to do over, is get long arms from the get go. These things are amazing..
Yeah there’s a couple different versions. The one you’re looking at I think, is the Xfactor X2. It has to have room for the front upper arm bracket to weld on. I got the Adventure X it’s more of a on/off road kit , where the other one is more geared for off-road. The one I have, you don’t have to do anything to the front axle, arms go in oem axle brackets.
…. They need one of those little emoji dudes scratching his head……..
Dang. Thought you had it coveredThe good news is I finally got the body mount bolts to clear…….
The bad news is…… all that did was let the arm continue up to hit the frame bracket……
RK is working on it, they’ve been great throughout this whole process ……
The front arms are a 20 degree bend , and the rears are 16 degree bend. I might have two sets of fronts.
When I put my angle finder on it, it says 12 degrees on the bent part and I’m dead level on the straight part on all four arms so I don’t know.
I’m not very good at math, I don’t know if there’s some kind of formula that makes this reading into 20 or 16 degrees, that’s above my pay grade. I get that if the flat part of the arm was angled or if Jeep wasn’t level it would factor in, but my garage floor is dead level and the arm says 0……
